Agreed. If I could even come close to these gorgeous systems I would be happy! Takes a lot of hard work and careful planning but I am looking forward to it!

Hey Wayne, I notice there are 2 holes in the bottom of the tank. If you have bulkheads that fit the holes you need to put them in and measure the distance from the edge of the bulkhead to the back of the tank. There needs to be at least 2" there in order to get the bulkhead tight.

Just as an FYI, Zeovit can be used on a similar schedule to all the other probiotic products. You just gotta play with the ratios.

Thanks for the input Greg. I don't have any bulkheads yet but sphelps whom I purchased the tank from was using 1 1/4" bulkheads for the returns so I am assuming this will be fine.

Is that right? I have never heard that and will have to look into it more!

Oh that Steve, I am sure it will be fine but I will ask him as I recently finished & delivered his new stand. I want to make sure it will be all good

I'm assuming you're going with a Herbie overflow because of the two holes you have for your overflow into your sump? Also I didn't see a filter sock tray. Are you going to be using filter socks?
